Showing Your Commitment Through the Sparkling Beauty of a Promise Ring

Princess Cut Promise Ring

For centuries, rings have represented a strong meaning. In this case, a princess cut promise ring can show your strong level of commitment and affection…while at the same time radiating a brilliance that is so unique and so beautiful.

Although a promise sing could be worn on any finger on any hand, the side she wears it on can mean something different. Within the western culture, a ring worn on the left has been the traditional place for an engagement or wedding ring.

The value of these rings varies greatly as is the case with any fine jewelry. In some cases it may take the place of an engagement ring. Generally, however, they are of less value and have smaller gems than the traditional engagement/wedding ring.

The Shape of a Princess Cut Diamond

Speaking of gems, a very popular shape of diamond is known as the princess cut. Instead of the standard round cut diamond, the princess cut is a square cut diamond. They are normally lower priced than a round stone of comparable size. Buyer beware, however, and avoid princess cut diamonds with shallow crown heights, they will not have the brilliance of a gem with extra facets. Most square cut diamonds can’t compare to the brilliance of the round cut, but the princess cut was designed to get maximum brilliance from a square cut. When making a selection of a princess cut stone, make sure the setting has four prongs to protect the four corners from chipping.

Reasons for Giving a Princess Cut Promise Ring

Even though a promise ring has been used to express a love that is shared between two people that are undoubtedly in love, there are other reasons for sharing such a gift. It is a beautiful way to say “I promise to support, honor, love, etc.” to members of your family or platonic friends. Or, be your own best friend and make a promise to yourself to quit smoking, improve your diet, take better care of yourself.

The symbol of the ring stores a deep meaning that you felt at the time you gave it. Each time you look at it, just remember the reason why you are giving it. This will strengthen the feelings that you have for that special person.

Whether you decide on getting a princess cut stone set in a solitaire ring…or together with accent stones - such a ring can express a gift of such deep meaning. If you want to show that deep level of love that you feel for your sweetheart, it’s time to find a princess cut promise ring for that perfect gift.
